A Song A Day http://newsongeachday.tumblr.com/
Description:
Three people run the blog. We tend to upload a lot of indie music, but have been known to stray out of the ordinary with artists like Nujabes. We will expand out of our indie comfort zone to explore all kinds of music.
Not only do we simply post music and our favorite part of the lyrics, but we accompany our uploaded songs with the subjective views of the uploader. This allows our followers to take look into the music and our lives. So far, from what we’ve noticed, our followers tend to like what we have to say. That’s why music is so beautiful: it’s subjective.

Welcome to a very fine music blog. What you will find here is a mix of both the underground sounds of entertainment as well as music that is floating around the radio. Most likely that radio music will be heard here first before it enters the realm of band-wagoner’s. In any case the PLC Team ask that you follow and enjoy the music that we blog.
What we post: It depends on the blogger, each member of our team brings a new perspective to discuss about the music industry.
- Zubin K. mostly tries to bring new music by new artist to the table.
- Rhody covers the rock genre well.
- Nia is in charge of all the “classics” of music.
- Gianna is good about covering indie/folk music, pop music, and all things One Direction.

Inside this Box http://sweetmelissamusic.tumblr.com/
Description:
In the digital age, it’s incredibly easy to become locked into a box of specificity. With your headphones in you only hear the music on your own iPod, each FM radio station preset in your car is narrowcast, iTunes uses Genius to suggest music similar to what you already have, Google and Youtube tailor your search results to reflect what you’ve searched before. It is entirely possible to go through your day in your own specifically tailored bubble, unexposed to anything unfamiliar. Inside this Box aims not to showcase any particular type of music, but to showcase music that has that extra something, to try to spell out the undefinable element that makes one song or another worth listening to- even if it’s unlike anything you would normally be told to listen to. Because, as Schrodinger theorized, you don’t know what’s inside the box until you open it up.
